Eyes are close to bleeding from all the reading, sites, etc. but still no luck (darn close though). �There are so many doc's even the main one is really not very helpful in just getting things installed, but anyone feel free to help someone before blindness takes over! �I am close and rather than just 'getting it working', I am also trying to understand so I can go from backing up a local directory, to adding SD device, other servers, etc.
I have read a LOT these past few days and now I have the following. �CentOS 5.5 server running, built from�epel repo and yum. �I have webmin installed and the bacula module (trying to make it easier) and all 3 services (director, sd and fd on the same box) and want to test with a local backup of a folder. �The webmin mod has a nice simple home of director, client and file-storage status, file I select 'show status' I get the following;
Director status shows the test backups with fail.
Client status shows the local 127.0.0.1 I have setup 1st, clicking test now I get;
Status from servername : bacula-fd Version: 2.0.3 (06 March 2007) i686-redhat-linux-gnu redhat Enterprise releaseRunning Backup Jobs
No backup jobs are currently running.
Last is the storage. �When I select that, I get the following;
Failed to fetch status from File : Failed to connect to Storage daemon File.
So I am wondering where the problem is. �As you see, I don't have a tape, but trying to backup to a local storage area /data. �I verified the correct director-password with the one used in bacula-fd and their exact. �The /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf file has the following;
Storage { � � � � � � � � � � � � � � # definition of myself
��Name = bacula-sd ��SDport = 9103 ��WorkingDirectory = /var/spool/bacula
��Pid Directory = "/var/run" ��Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20 }
Director { ��Name = bacula-dir ��Password = "pass-here"
}
Device { ��Name = FileStorage
��Media Type = File ��Archive Device = /data ��LabelMedia = yes
��Random Access = yes ��AutomaticMount = yes ��RemovableMedia = no
��AlwaysOpen = no }
I tried reading as much as I could, but things are working, a backup does start, but fails when it tries to attach to the storage device, and I am sure it's something simple or something the examples and such I had didn't include as a lot were for tape drives.
Thanks for the time of reading and helping out ...
